Great! I will test it when I have time (running 2.6.0-test6-mm4 now).
Unfortunate that the people at namesys won't release a snapshot though. I would love to try it out on a temporary partition, but the latest snapshots won't compile, and further back I won't dare to touch it. I reported the bug, and though it should be fixed upstream, I'm not able to see the results

As stated previously supermount is an EVIL implementation of a nice idea - this type of stuff MUST be done in userspace.. so make it apply to love sources and I'll include it, but if I have to do real world to include a feature I don't even like then forget it.

downloading it now, compiling it soon after.
i will report back after a reboot.

It should be as great as ever - mainly the important bit for test6-love1 was getting the runtime selectable IO scheduler stuff in... and I must say it's one of my favorite features ever.

I love that I can set the right scheduler for the right block device - something that doesn't benefit from all this scheduling nonsense like a flash device can just go noop without affecting anything else.. it's so great..

Sorry, but I'm the evil dicator.

I was more of kidding, I already read your reasons for disliking supermount, what do you suggest in the userspace domain which would replace supermount?_________________Really, I'm not out to destroy Microsoft. That will just be a completely unintentional side effect.

hmmm, I found this one, submount, it looks basically the same as supermount but slightly different (if that made any sense) anyone tried it?_________________Really, I'm not out to destroy Microsoft. That will just be a completely unintentional side effect.

ok. compiled it, rebooted. seems to run fine.
passes the browser-window-wiggle-xmms-
no-skip test just fine. i am not sure about
those new options available by passing things
to io_scheduler; i do not know what i may
do with them; i just chose the cfg one as
you suggested._________________proud to be a scout and a chronic penguin hugger

it's mainly meant for having seperate schedulers on different devices - stuff that doesn't benefit form scheduling shouldn't be wasted resources upon.

Of course you don't have to cat it but it never seems to work if I do otherwise (will come up asking me a bunch of questions regarding what stuff to stick where that I just don't know)._________________Really, I'm not out to destroy Microsoft.

I have mirrored it here:
http://ajax.kfunigraz.ac.at/~gantner/stuff/2.6.0-test6-love1.patch.bz2
Feel free to add as mirror to original post. It's my universities webserver, so I guess no worries about bandwidth.
Note that I untarred and rebzip2ed it, hence the different name (misconfigured webserver corrupts .tar files on download). No need to tar a single file anyway is there _________________Please put [SOLVED] in your topic if you are a moron.
